Mexico's Jose Luis Castillo celebrated an anniversary recently, reflecting back on the night he faced Floyd Mayweather for the first time - on April 20, 2002. Castillo, who retired in 2014, lost a twelve round unanimous decision to Mayweather - as they battled for the WBC lightweight title.

Hmm, slow news day.

Castillo was one of my favorites of the era, but uh... no the fuck you didn't bro.

It's funny This story came up, I actually watched this fight again on YouTube the other day and I must say Castillo definitely won that fight. You could make an argument for a draw and for A 7-5 Castillo win, but definitely not a Mayweather win. 5 rounds is the most I could give Mayweather, 6 is a stretch but definitely not from the realm of possibility, to say Mayweather won 7 is not plausible. Regardless it's ancient history but would recommend fans to check it out.

Boxing fans think you beat him. Just like fans know Pac beat Bradley 3 times.
But history books say otherwise

Why do I care about yesteryear's sour g****s?

I didn’t think he won it then, I still don’t think he won it after watching it multiple times. But am a Mayweather super fan so my glasses are definitely rose tinted.

May be tru!!!

This Might be TRUE in the 1st fight but mayweather clearly won the second fight. so that erased the 1st fight. because if you beat his you should have beat him again!! thats why there was a rematch to erase any doubt.

Disagree.

Much respect to Castillo. The fight was close, no robbery though. I had it a draw but I will say that is the one and only Floyd fight where I came away with the impression that he was not the better fighter. The rounds that Castillo won were so much clearer.

A side note is that you can tell how much Castillo respects Floyd
